In the spring of 1996, Kelly received an early version of the kiddie movie Space Jam, featuring Michael Jordan and Bugs Bunny. "I studied it and I prayed over it," said Kelly, "because I wanted the best thing to come out of it." The movie was nothing special, but the gospel-style ballad Kelly came up with lives on at weddings and sixth-grade choir concerts to this day, despite his recent legal troubles.
